Diagnostics

 

Could an underlying illness or injury be plaguing your pet?

When people become sick or injured, they go to the doctor, explain their symptoms and receive the appropriate care. With pets, it’s not always this straightforward. Because animals can’t speak, they aren’t able to tell us when something is bothering them.

What’s more, many animals are able to mask the signs of illness, allowing it to develop and worsen undetected.

The veterinary diagnostics at Ski Town Animal Hospital enable our team to identify and treat health problems in a timely manner. Faster diagnosis of illness and injury can vastly improve the chances of a positive outcome..

Laboratory

Our convenient on-site diagnostic laboratory makes it quick and efficient to run a wide variety of tests. In many cases, we can have results in just a few minutes. This means we can establish a treatment plan before you and your pet even leave the exam room.

Imaging

When a physical exam and lab work aren’t sufficient for reaching a diagnosis, we turn to advanced imaging technology, including x-rays and ultrasound. These tools enable us to evaluate the bones and internal organs, identifying injuries, diagnosing illness and determining its severity.

Digital images can be analyzed by our doctors in real-time or shared electronically with specialists if necessary.

If your pet has been acting a bit out of sorts lately, don’t take any chances. Give the experienced team at Ski Town Animal Hospital a call right away. We’ll get to the bottom of the problem and get your best friend back on the path to good health again.
